Fox Buys a Doomsday Sitcom from Will Forte

Former Saturday Night Live star Will Forte has sold a pilot to Fox, according to Deadline. Forte is currently set to write and executive produce The Last Man On Earth, a single-camera show about “two strangers who must overcome their differences and work together to ensure the survival of the human race.” There’s no word yet on whether he’ll appear on the show. He’ll be producing it alongside Phil Lord and Chris Miller, who it was announced yesterday had sold another pilot to Fox with producer Johnny Depp.
